in mapping help, but alright.

You don't need qc for that.
Make a new map, make a small box of 128 x128 x128 in it.
Inside this box create a trigger teleport.(don't let it touch the box walls)
Add a teleport destination outside the small box.
Create a func_button that triggers the teleporter.
Set a monster inside the small box, flash the trigger and your monster spawns.

The tutorial shows how to do it without teleporting - faking it with qc. You then just give the monster a name and call that from the button.

Monsters can only spawn once.
